Abstract
The article discusses the main characteristics of the behavior of great apes trained in simple non-sound analogs of the human language (the so-called intermediary languages). The proofs are given that their "language" behavior really possesses the rudiments of many qualities of a human language and approaches the language of 2-year-old children. The same similarity is characteristic of a number of higher cognitive abilities common to both, which are absent in other animals (the ability to symbolize, self-recognition, theory of mind, etc.). It is emphasized that it is precisely the high level of cognitive abilities that creates the basis for the appearance of the rudiments of language in the process of evolution, that the ability to “speak” appears only together with the ability to “think”.
